Philco 1962 - cycling figurine

This figurine from the zamak collection captures the Philco team jersey as it appeared in the professional peloton during the 1962 season.

The 1962 season in the peloton
The 1962 season stands as one of the great chapters in European professional cycling. At the Tour de France, Jacques Anquetil claimed his third overall victory, imposing his trademark authority on the race with the measured brilliance that defined his career. Franco Balmamion took the Giro d'Italia, while Jean Stablinski was crowned road world champion in Salò. The peloton of that era blended national squads with trade teams, producing a brand of racing that was both gritty and graceful — every jersey carrying its own story.
